Remote Freelance Graphic Designer - Multi-Channel Campaigns

We’re interested in hearing from designers and art workers with a range of expertise, from specialists in editorial art working and production design to creative designers experienced in developing visual concepts and applying them across multiple channels.

Assignments will vary in scope and complexity, and we'll match work to your skills and experience. This could include short pieces of work, larger projects or ongoing support, depending on business need.

This is a remote opportunity. We work with freelancers on an ad hoc basis, with assignments agreed as and when required.

Depending on the assignment, freelancers may be asked to deliver outcomes such as:

• Producing accessible editorial documents, reports and publications.

• Formatting and refining existing documents into polished, high-quality outputs.

• Creating digital and print assets in line with Oak's visual identity.

• Producing social media graphics, campaign assets, presentations and simple infographics.

• Resizing and adapting existing assets for different formats and channels.

• Developing creative concepts and visual identities for campaigns and communications.

• Designing more complex infographics, illustrations and long-form visual content.

• Creating reusable visual systems, templates and design assets for internal teams.

• Working from design briefs to deliver high-quality outputs within agreed timescales.

• Applying Oak's brand consistently while exercising sound creative judgement appropriate to each project.

• Strong graphic design and visual communication skills.

• Excellent attention to detail and a high standard of accuracy.

• The ability to structure information clearly and produce accessible layouts.

• Experience creating assets for both digital and print channels.

• Confidence interpreting design briefs and managing work independently.

For more complex creative commissions, we're particularly interested in designers who can demonstrate:

• Strong conceptual and creative thinking.

• Experience developing visual identities, campaigns and multi-channel communications.

• Confidence using collaborative design tools such as Figma.

• The ability to create original design solutions rather than simply producing artwork.

• Experience designing visual systems that can be reused across multiple projects and teams.

Please note:

Joining the pool does not guarantee that work will be offered, and each engagement will be agreed separately.

This engagement is offered on a self-employed basis. The appointed freelancer will have autonomy over how the work is delivered, working to agreed outcomes and timelines.

They will not be subject to traditional line management but will liaise with a named Oak contact to ensure alignment, share progress, and agree priorities across the engagement period.
